In recent years, there is a tendency to require the eating habits which suppress excessive ingestion of fat because of a rise of consumers' health consciousness. Therefore, even in an ice cream or ice cream-like product in which the content of milk fat is decreased, the technology of offering an ice cream or ice cream-like product having smooth and rich texture peculiar to milk fat is in need.
Responding to this request, various raw materials such as starch, a starch hydrolysate, chemically processed starch, and milk whey protein have been used as alternative raw materials of fat. For example, it is disclosed in prior art Literatures that the method containing a starch hydrolysate (Patent Literature 1), the method containing whey protein isolate (WPI) having an increased protein concentration to 90% or above (Patent Literature 2), the method containing whey protein concentrate (WPC) (Patent Literature 3), the method containing the heat-denatured milk whey protein and dextrin (Patent Literature 4), the heat-denatured milk whey protein containing whey protein (Patent Literatures 5 and 6) etc. are useful as an alternative for fat.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED BY INVENTION
[0006]
Following analyses are given by the present invention.
However, a starch hydrolysate such as dextrin has a low stability at a lower temperature; and a long storage period brings about not only roughness and powdery feeling but also a quality loss such as deterioration of the full-bodied taste and flavor; and it seems that there is no sufficient effect of the fat-alternative.
In addition, as for the denatured milk whey protein, smoothness and creaminess can be given to a food without any influence by the food composition due to application of the denaturation process such as heat; on the other hand, a smell and flavor peculiar to the whey affect the food, and also viscosity rises in the case where an addition amount is increased for supplying a rich taste peculiar to fat, and there has been an inconvenience on work. Moreover, there is a problem in the cost of the heat-denatured milk whey protein itself. Furthermore, in the case where the chemically processed starch is blended with dairy products, while there are effects in the feeling upon eat such as an improvement in water holding property, provision of a rich texture etc., there are problems that a sufficient property to keep a shape is not obtained, a texture like paste is strong and a feeling of smooth melting in the mouse worsens, flavor release falls etc. On the other hand, in the case where a polysaccharide is blended with dairy products, while there are improvements in a property to keep a shape and an improvement effect 5 of a feeling of smooth melting in the mouth, there are problems that a fat-like richness is not obtained satisfactorily etc.

In the method for producing an ice cream or ice cream-like product, there is a process of freezing which sends air into raw materials while cooling them. It is the most important process in the processes of producing an ice cream or ice cream-like product to make a smooth texture and flavor by making air contained in a mix. At this time, the ratio of the mix to the volume is decreased more when the ratio of air content to the mix (it is called overrun (%))is higher; and as a result, the cost of raw materials can be reduced also even in an ice cream or ice cream-like product having the same volume. Furthermore, not only improvement in the texture and physical-properties but an excessive ingestion of fat and calorie can also be suppressed by the improvement of overrun.
However, in a conventional process of producing an ice cream or ice cream-like product, there is almost no case to report that even if a milk fat is reduced, a rich body flavor and a smooth texture are given and a moderate rich taste can be brought and besides the improvement of overrun has been attempted.

When a milk fat is reduced, a color tone change (fading) is to be mentioned, as one of the quality deterioration which may often take place. For example, while the ice cream which uses an egg (egg yolk) shows light yellow, it may be a little tinged with white in case of reducing the fat. However, although many attempts for improving texture by an alternative raw material of the milk fat as mentioned above have been made, there is no case in which color tone change (fading) control has been achieved.

Thus, in the conventional techniques, it is the present status that both texture and physical properties required for an ice cream or ice cream-like product, especially those having a decreased content ratio of milk fat, cannot fully be satisfied, and development of a production technology is desired for an ice cream or ice cream-like product having a smooth and rich texture and outstanding physical properties, especially an ice cream or ice cream-like product to have good texture and physical properties even if the content ratio of milk fat is decreased.

In the meanwhile, a protein deamidating enzyme, which acts directly on an amide group in proteins, is an enzyme to catalyze a reaction of deamidation. Thereby it causes transformation of glutamine residues into glutamic acid residues to generate carboxylic group, which results in an increase of negative charge, an increase of electrostatic repulsive force, a fall of an isoelectric point, an increase of hydration capability etc. of protein. As a result, it has been known that various improvements in functionalities such as an increase of solubility of protein and dispersion of protein in water, and an improvement of emulsification ability etc. are rendered (Non-Patent Literatures 1 and 2, Patent Literatures 7-11).
In addition, a method of .. using the protein deamidating enzyme in food products is disclosed in Patent Literatures 7, 9, 10 and 11, among these prior Literatures, there is a description relating an alteration of functional properties of wheat gluten, milk protein (mainly, whey protein) using the enzyme concerned. A method of using the protein deamidating enzyme for .. yoghurt, cheese and pudding is disclosed in Patent Literature 10, and a method for manufacturing the starch-containing food in which color, luster and texture are good and time degradation after cooking is controlled by adding a milk which is treated with the protein deamidating enzyme to a starch containing food such as bread and white sauce is disclosed in Patent Literature 11. However, with the aim of the technology of improving the texture and physical properties of ice cream and the improved quality of the low-fat ice cream using such technology, any case in which the protein deamidating enzyme was used has not been reported yet.

A protein deamidating enzyme can be prepared from a culture liquid for microorganism that produces a protein deamidating enzyme.
Publicly known separation and purification methods of protein (such as centrifuging, UF concentration, salting-out, various kinds of chromatography with ion-exchanging resin, etc.) can be used as a preparation method of a protein deamidating enzyme. For example, the culture liquid is centrifuged to remove bacteria cells, and then salting-out and chromatography, and the like may be combined to obtain the target enzyme. When collecting the enzyme from the interior of bacterial cells, bacterial cells can be crushed by a pressure processing or ultrasonic processing, for example, and then separated and purified as described above to obtain the target enzyme. Bacterial cells may be collected from a culture liquid by filtration or centrifuge, etc. prior to the processing steps above explained (such as crushing of bacterial cells, separation and purification). The enzyme may be powdered by a drying method such as freeze drying or vacuum drying, etc., and an appropriate bulking agent or drying adjuvant may be used at the drying step.

(2) An amount of ammonia generated by the reaction in the solution obtained in (1) is measured by using Ammonia-test Wako (manufactured by Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd.). An ammonia concentration in the reaction solution is determined using a calibration curve indicating a relation between the ammonia concentration and the variation of absorbance (at 630nm) prepared using an ammonia standard solution (ammonium chloride).
(3) Activity of a protein deamidating enzyme, where the amount of enzyme required to produce 1 p mol of ammonia per 1 min is defined as 1 unit, is calculated by the following formula.
Enzymatic activity (u/mL) = the ammonium concentration in the reaction solution (mg/L) x (1/17.03) x (the volume of the reaction solution/the volume of the enzyme solution) x (1/10) X Df (17.03: the molecular weight of ammonia, 2.1: the volume of the solution of the enzyme reaction system, 0.1: the volume of the enzyme solution, 10: the reaction time, Df: the dilution rate of the enzyme solution)

In the method for producing an ice cream or ice cream-like product of the present invention, there are two methods which make the protein deamidating enzyme act. The first method is a method in which the protein deamidating enzyme is allowed to act after the milk protein content of the solution containing a milk material such as milk, non-fat dry milk etc. is adjusted by the dissolution and preparation of the solution to be 0.1-7.0% by weight, preferably 0.5-6.0% by weight (the pre-incubation method). The other method is a method in which the milk protein deamidated with a protein deamidating enzyme in advance is re-dissolved in the aqueous phase (an addition method of deamidated milk protein). That is, it is a method such that the solution containing a milk material such as milk is treated with the protein deamidating enzyme to prepare a deamidated milk protein, then the solution itself or one dried and powdered thereof is treated with addition of water or concentrated, and the solution is prepared so that the deamidated protein content is 0.1-7.0% by weight, preferably 0.5-6.0% by weight. In either method, the enzyme may be deactivated suitably by heating at 75 C or above.

Subsequently, the method in which the protein deamidating 5 enzyme is added to the milk material such as milk or a liquid ice cream mix and is reacted therein is explained.
In the present invention, it is preferable to perform the reaction in order that the deamidation rate of the milk protein in the milk material is to be 68% or above, that is 68%-100%, and the enzymatic reaction conditions (such as an amount 10 of the enzyme, reaction time, temperature, pH of the reaction solution etc.) for being such a state may be suitably set, in order that the deamidation rate of the milk protein in the milk material mixed-solution is to be within a proper range. It is preferable that the deamidation rate is higher, and in the case where it is less than 68%
15 there is a tendency for sufficient texture improvement effect over ice cream not to be acquired, with lowering of the deamidation rate. For example, in a case where the amount of enzyme is low, although the reaction time may be elongated, the general addition amount of the protein deamidating enzyme is preferably 0.01-100 units, and more preferably 0.1-25 units per 1 g (dried weight) of the milk protein.
Preferable reaction temperature is 5-75 C, and more preferably 5-60 C.
Preferable pH of the reaction solution is 2-10, and more preferably 4-8.
Preferable reaction time is from 10 seconds to 48 hours, and more preferably from 10 minutes to 24 hours.

The deamidation rate used in the present invention shows to what degree glutamine residues in the milk proteins in the solution containing a milk material were deamidated with the protein deamidating enzyme. The state where all glutamines in proteins in the milk material mixed-solution are deamidated is defined as 100%. In a case where 15 units of the enzyme is added to 1 g of the milk protein and the resulting mixture is subjected to reaction at 55 C for an hour, the deamidation reaction reaches saturation. Thereby, a maximum reaction amount (an amount of ammonia) which shows 100% of the deamidation rate can be obtained. That is, the deamidation rate is obtained based on the following formula.
The deamidation rate (%) = [the amount of ammonia in the milk raw material mixed-solution in case of reacting the protein deamidating enzyme into the milk raw material mixed-solution] + [the amount of ammonia in the milk raw material mixed-solution in case of reacting for an hour at 55 C by adding the same enzyme (15 units / 1 g milk protein) into the same milk raw material mixed-solution] x 100

The amount of ammonia generated by the deamidation reaction can be measured by commercially available ammonia measuring kit.
For example, the enzymatic reaction is stopped by adding to the milk material mixed-solution (as for the pre-incubation method) or the milk protein solution (as for the addition method of deamidated milk protein) 12% TCA of the same quantity as the solution, and the amount of ammonia in the supernatant obtained by centrifugation (12,000 rpm, C, 5 minutes) is measured using F-kit (Roche). In detail, 10p 1 of the supernatant and 190p 1 of 0.1M triethanolamine buffer (pH 8.0) are added to 100p 1 of liquid reagent II (an attachment of the F-kit) and settled for 5 minutes at room temperature. After that an absorbance at 5 340 nm is measured using 100p 1 of the resultant solution. 1.0p 1 of reagent III (an attachment of the F-kit, glutamate dehydrogenase) is added to the remaining 200 p 1 of the solution and settled for 20 minutes at room temperature and then an absorbance at 340 nm is measured using the 200p 1 of the solution. An ammonia concentration .. in the supernatant is determined using a calibration curve indicating the relation between the ammonia concentration and the variation of absorbance (at 340 nm) prepared using an ammonia standard solution attached to the F-kit, and thereby the amount of ammonia in the milk material mixed-solution or the milk protein solution is determined. In addition, in a case where the measurement is out of the range of standard curve, the solution for measurement is appropriately diluted with water, and then measured.

A sensory evaluation was done by a panel of 6 skilled persons.
Regarding "smooth and rich texture", the target product was set as +3 5 points and the control product was set as -3 points, and where the texture of the ice cream prepared using the deamidated milk by the PG
treatment would be positioned was evaluated by scoring. In Table 2, the average values of 6 persons are indicated. Although the control product had a crunchy texture like sherbet, an evaluation score became 10 high with the increasing degree of PG treatment and it had approached to smooth and rich texture of the whole-fat ice cream. However, as for the product treated with 2U of PG, i.e., the ice cream prepared with the milk having 34% of the deamidation rate, while it is improved more than the control product it was not enough as to the degree of its effect 15 (compared product 1). On the other hand, as for the ice cream which had a composition of the milk treated with 4U and 10U of PG, i.e., the milk having 68% and 100% of the deamidation rate (the invention products 1 and 2), they had a clearly improved effect of texture.

In addition, the result in which the overrun (%) was measured is shown in Table 3. There is a tendency that the overrun value of the low-fat ice cream is a little higher than that value of the whole-fat ice cream, and overrun values of the invention products 1 and 2 exceeded that value of the control product further. There was not shown a big difference in overrun between the compared product 1 and control product. Moreover, color differences (L, a*, b* value) of ice creams were measured by a color-difference meter (Minoruta Camera, CR-300).
Among them, b* value which shows the yellow strength which has a difference in appearance was focused upon. The result is shown in Table 4. As shown in Table 4, while there was a tendency that b*
value of the control product was decreased and yellow became weak, b*
value increased with the increasing degree of PG treatment, compared to the target product. And, in invention products 1 and 2, it was also observed through visual observation that the yellowish color tone was approaching to the target product. Thus, as for the ice cream (invention products 1 and 2) which uses the milk having the deamidation rate of 68% or above, it turns out that smooth and rich texture is given and it was also recognized that physical properties such as overrun and a color tone are improved, too.

The whey protein is known as the existing material for improving the texture of ice cream. As a compared product, a low-fat ice cream was prepared as a trial (compared product 2), according to the same method as Example 1 with adding 1.5% of the whey protein concentrate "Bipro" (made by DAVISCO) instead of decreasing 1.5% of the addition ratio of the milk. Results of the sensory evaluation, the measurement of overrun and the measurement of b* value, and comments which were raised at the time of the sensory evaluation are shown in Table 5. As for the compared product 2, while there was a body and smooth texture was given like the invention product 2, a flavor peculiar to the whey was given. On the other hand, the invention product 2 was advantageous from the view point of that not only the texture has been improved but also there is almost no influence on the taste or flavor. Moreover, it was shown that the invention product 2 is superior to what was prepared using the whey protein material, also from the view point of the improvement in overrun or a color tone improvement (yellow strength).

Similarly, a whole-fat ice cream (target product) having 13.4% of milk fat and the ice cream (60% reduction of milk fat) (control product) having 5.5% of milk fat was prepared using untreated milk. Also, as for compared products, ice cream mixes of 20% reduction of milk fat (milk fat 10.1%) and 40% reduction of milk fat (milk fat 8.1%) were prepared, and ice creams were obtained similarly (compared products 3 and 4, respectively). In addition, all the proteins contained in these ice creams were uniformly fixed at 4.6%.
Into a commercially available whole-fat milk (Magokoro Rakuno 3.6 milk: Takanashi Milk Products Co., Ltd), PG (manufactured by Amano Enzyme Inc.) was added by 10U per 1 g of proteins, and a milk having 100% of the deamidation rate which was subjected to reaction at 55 00 for 60 minutes was prepared.

A sensory evaluation was done by a panel of 6 skilled persons.
Regarding "smooth and rich texture", the target product was set as +5 5 points and the control product was set as +1 point, and where the invention products 2-5 and compared products 3 and 4 would be positioned was evaluated by scoring. In Table 7, the average values of 6 persons are indicated. First, in the case where comparing between ice creams having the same fat content, the ice creams (invention 10 products 2-5) prepared using the milk which was deamidated by PG had evaluating points that are higher than that points of the ice creams (the control product, the target product, the compared products 3 and 4) prepared using untreated milk.
In the invention product 5 of 40% reduction of fat, "smooth and 15 rich texture" was almost equivalent to that of the target product, and that of invention product 3 of the whole-fat and that of the invention product 4 of 20% reduction of fat exceeded that of the target product.
Also as for the invention product 2 of 60% reduction of fat, its texture approached to the texture of the target product, and this result 20 corresponded to Example 1. Thus, in the ice creams having different fat content which were prepared using the deamidated milk by PG, it was recognized that a texture to which the fat content was further increased can be given. Moreover, in invention products 2-5, each b*
value was larger than that of the target product, the compared products 25 3 and 4, and the control product respectively, and it was also recognized here that there is a tendency for the yellowish tone to become strong.

The present invention can obtain a desirable effect by a combination use with the whey protein and by applying PG treatment onto not only the milk but also the whole of the ice cream mix.
According to compositions of Table 8, ice creams were prepared as follows. First, into a commercially available whole-fat milk (Magokoro Rakuno 3.6 milk: Takanashi Milk Products Co., Ltd), PG
(manufactured by Amano Enzyme Inc.) was added by 10U per 1 g of proteins in the milk, which was subjected to reaction at 55 C for 60 minutes to prepare a milk having 100% of the deamidation rate. In addition to such milk and other base raw materials (see Table 1), an ice cream mix admixed with 0.5% of the whey protein concentrate "Bipro"
(made by DAVISCO) was subjected to mixing, swelling, sterilizing, homogenizing and aging as the same method as Example 1 so as to prepare an ice cream mix, and the prepared ice cream mix was subjected to freezing, filling and solidifying to obtain a low-fat ice cream having 5.5% of fat content (the invention product 6). Besides, .. an untreated milk and other base raw materials (see Table 1) were mixed and stirred by a Bamix (the protein content of the mix: 5.12%), to which mix PG was added by 4.4U per lg of proteins, and the stirred mixture was subjected to reaction at 55 C for 60 minutes. After the reaction, an ice cream mix was prepared by sterilizing, homogenizing and aging, and the prepared ice cream mix was subjected to freezing, filling and solidifying to obtain a low-fat ice cream having 5.5% of fat content (the invention product 7). As the same as Examples 1 and 2, a low-fat ice cream having 5.5% of fat content was obtained by using the untreated milk without adding the enzyme as a control product, and a whole-fat ice cream having 13.4% of fat content was obtained by using the untreated milk as a target product. Further, an ice cream mix with adding 0.5% of the whey protein concentrate "Bipro" (made by DAVISCO) was prepared by using the untreated milk without adding the enzyme to obtain a low-fat ice cream having 5.5% of fat content (compared product 5).

A sensory evaluation was done by a panel of 5 skilled persons.
Regarding "smooth and rich texture", the target product was set as +3 points and the control product was set as -3 points, and where the invention products 6 and 7 are to be positioned was evaluated by 5 scoring and calculating the average of 5 skilled persons. As shown in Table 9, as for the invention product 6, the strength of smooth and rich texture was almost equivalent to that of the target product. That is, 0.5% of the whey protein concentrate was added into the deamidated milk by PG, thereby the effect of improving the crunchy texture 10 peculiar to the low-fat ice cream which is the control product increased, and it was recognized that an ice cream which has the equivalent texture to that of the whole-fat ice cream is obtained. As for the ice cream prepared as a compared product, i.e., compared product 5 with addition of the untreated milk and 0.5% of the whey protein 15 concentrate, the smooth and rich texture were unable to be given sufficiently. On the other hand, also as for the invention product 7 which was prepared by allowing PG to act on the whole of the ice cream mix, the strength of smooth and rich texture almost approached to that of the target product. That is, due to the fact that an object 20 which is to be treated by PG is not restricted to the milk, i.e., also due to the fact that proteins in the mix of the milk, the non-fat dry milk, and the egg yolk are deamidated by PG, it was recognized that the texture close to that of the target product can be obtained.
